สถานีอิเซฮาระ × บ่อน้ำพุร้อน × โรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

Located about an hour from Shinjuku and easy to reach, yet once you step inside, a beautiful, nature-filled garden unfolds and makes you forget everyday life in an instant. The Room was also wonderful—said to be a favorite of Hayao Miyazaki—with thoughtful details throughout, from the view from the round in-room bath to the uniquely textured corridors, creating a truly charming atmosphere. From arrival to departure, the staff’s warm hospitality and attentive care made our family feel completely at ease, allowing us to spend a very comfortable and happy time.

Traveling with kids, we really appreciated having futons in a Japanese-style Room. The kids’ area also had crane games, capsule toy machines, and a ball pit. The bath was amazing—we didn’t even have time to enjoy the manga corner... We had such a great time that we wanted to extend our stay. We were also very happy with the 11:00 check-out time. We’d love to stay again as a stopover on our trips. We were satisfied with the Facility, and all the staff provided excellent service. Just one downside: Our Room was right in front of the smoking room, and our child didn’t like it.

This was my second stay, and this time I visited in summer. The Room was much larger than last time and seemed newly renovated—a Japanese-Western style Room with beds. Dinner and breakfast were served in a private room in a separate building, the same as before. This time it was a summer-style kaiseki featuring sweetfish (ayu). (In winter, it’s wild boar hot pot.) The open-air bath in the Room was also great. There are two large public baths; my favorite is the one with hot spring water cascading like a waterfall, which is used as the men’s bath at night and the women’s bath in the morning. I was even more satisfied than last time. Guests ranged from families with children to couples and married couples. Even the walk from the parking lot to the Room has a charming atmosphere, so I can recommend it. The service is very polite as well. (It seems staff change between dinner and breakfast—there were lots of “mom”-type staff members in the morning.) You’ll find tanuki figures all around. Also, the vending machines are reasonably priced, and it was nice that there were bottled drinks for each guest plus a thermos of iced water in the Room. (So you don’t need to buy water beforehand.) *Since you can’t tell the exact Room layout at Reservation, if you care about futons vs beds or whether there is a partition for the bath area, it may be best to call and confirm.* (The Room we had last time in February 2025 had futons, and if you opened the curtain by the open-air bath you could be seen. This time we had a Western-style bedroom with beds, and there was also a door/wooden screen by the open-air bath—so there were differences. It’s possible renovations have been done since then.)

The Onsen water felt soft and relaxing. However, after bathing I had to pass through the smoking room and wait for the elevator, so the smell of cigarettes was noticeable. The Room was well cleaned and comfortable.

I’ve stayed at many well-known Accommodations, and this one stood out for its small, carefully selected team. The staff were efficient and treated us with genuine courtesy, which I truly appreciated. Summer flowers were blooming in front of the Room, and it was beautiful—really lovely. The bath was very comfortable, with the water temperature just right. I can’t get into overly hot baths, so that was perfect for me. Also, although I didn’t use it myself, there was a caregiving bath chair provided in the bath area. It felt like an Onsen Accommodation well suited for elderly guests as well. It’s also relatively close to central Tokyo, making it a place you’ll want to return to. On the way back from the Hotel, there was a local deli where we could buy very fresh vegetables and more—another nice bonus.

Despite the reasonable price, there was nothing inconvenient at all.

This is the Accommodation I stayed at for my fan activities. It had a retro, very calming atmosphere. When I told the staff it was for fan activities, they prepared the same yukata that my favorites had worn (they said it’s not in use now, though). For meals, we had tofu dishes and additionally ordered beef shabu-shabu, which was very filling. A river runs alongside the property, and rather than a gentle babble it sounded more like heavy rain (maybe because it had rained the day before?), but it still felt refreshing in its own way. The Onsen left my skin smooth and kept me warm. I regret not being able to join the morning service due to lack of time, but it became a wonderful memory. Thank you for taking care of us.

Atsugi Nanasawa Onsen was wonderful. We were able to use two indoor baths and one open-air bath almost privately.
